HUNTSVILLE, Alabama -- A Craigslist sale turned into armed robbery for a Huntsville man Wednesday afternoon, according to a police report.

The man told police he contacted someone online to buy a cell phone. He went to meet the seller in the parking lot of 2250 Sparkman Drive at about 4:30 p.m. This is the listed address for a shopping center.

Two men met him there but rather than producing a phone, they pulled out a handgun. They took his property and fled. The victim was not injured.
